Gallup Reviews

Pros

Gallup has a pathway to excellence on boarding program that offers a comprehensive overview of Gallup, the history of the company, why we do what we do and how we go about doing it. The on boarding program spans months and is all about relationships, meeting people, connecting to the ecosystem, and learning about how you can be a great Gallup citizen.

Here's what I have figured out in my first 6 weeks:

Gallup isn't your typical "Corporate America" business - people are highly engaged, super accountable, and get stuff done! We work hard and play hard.

There is very little red tape - if you need something, make your case for it. If it adds value and has a good ROI, you will likely get it. If it's a nice to have, you'll learn we are fiscally conservative and proud of it.

It's flat and title agnostic - you will not find an org chart when you start and titles won't help you understand what people do. If fact, my title isn't manger, it's "go-to" as in a person others can go-to if they need something. The idea is to do what you do best for the majority of your day. This is why relationship building is critical - it's like getting a 500 piece puzzle without a picture and you will need to figure out how it all fits together. (My puzzle is still a work in progress - it will take a while to figure out the matrix)

It's like a small town / big family - it seemed like everyone I was introduced to or introduced myself to had heard I was hired, heard my name and knew I was the new manager in technology. I felt a little like the shiny new toy at Christmas.

There is no rule book - you will need to find out how you can add the most value based on what you bring to the table - if you are a black and white thinker, this could be hard - if you are wired like an entrepreneur, this could be AWESOME!

Campus and Benefits:
The campus is beautiful, there is plenty of open collaboration space/conference rooms and tons of natural light. We have an on-site cafeteria with free coffee (its great), on-site gym with trainers (they are awesome), a full service credit union (they are great to work it) and more. We are all about well being from every aspect!

Our health insurance is a high deductible plan and is by far the most affordable plan I've ever seen! It was like getting a raise when I signed up compared to what I paid at prior employers. We also have 401K, disability, life, vision, dental, etc. You will have a one on one session to understand it all when you join.

Overall:
Hopefully this gives you a really good idea of what you might expect if you are looking at Gallup. When I looked at Glass Door reviews prior to joining Gallup, they didn't help me as much as I had hoped so I wanted to put this out there. In my first 6 weeks, I can say that I am thrilled to be a part of the Gallup tribe and can see myself staying for a very long time!!

P.S. Our talent team is pretty awesome - you should connect with them for more info.

Advice to Management

Keep communicating and doing what you are doing to make this one of the best workplace environments out there.

Pros

Strengths based, great environment, flexible

Pros

Gallup has a unique culture--if you are a driven person with a strong work-ethic and excellent client/work execution, you will be rewarded and recognized beyond your wildest dreams. Gallup really does care about and engage their employees--they practice what they preach. I've never felt like I was developed and my talents allowed to shine so bright anywhere else outside of Gallup. The people here are genuinely welcoming, friendly and appreciative of the work everyone here does--I think largely because of the strengths-based culture. Also--flexibility!--Gallup has one of the best cultures for autonomy and setting your own schedule, while you may work a lot of hours--the flexible schedule and unlimited vacation can help make up for this.

Pros

Flexible schedules, nice workspace, family friendly.

Advice to Management

Have a plan. Sell the plan and stick with it. Change for the sake of change is frustrating. Identify leaders. The mesh of inconsistent leadership is confusing and causes developers to feel they are doing work without meaning. You have some very toxic people that need to be taken care of if you want to see some positive change.

Pros

Easy and flexible hours.

Pros

Flexible schedule, great culture, great people

Pros

Gallup is a unique culture based on relationships - working together, growing together, caring about one another as people, and recognizing that we are all at our best when we support each other.

Pros

Lots of opportunity to work on interesting topics and issues, as well as guide your own development and develop specialties that make your role unique. Great office culture, with flexible work schedules and management that treats you like an adult.
